Christmas 3.0

Our last Christmas was actually on New Year's Day.  That morning we went to get pictures taken again at JCPenney, but with Nate's side of the family.  Side note:  I found a coupon online that gave us free sitting fees plus $4 sheets.  That little coupon saved us $150 in sitting fees alone on each side! 
The pictures turned out good, even though the boys had just taken pictures a few days earlier.  They were a bit more restless, and having cousin P (3 1/2 years old) instead of baby A (11 months old) made it a bit more difficult...one more kid to make happy!  We got a really cute one of the kids with Mike and Dorothy where no one was looking (except M and D), but they were all smiling and laughing and there was at least one tongue out! 
We ate lunch at home, then opened presents again!  The boys really had this down by this point. :) 
Dorothy made each boy a clown and pj's to go with them.  Z got a clown for his first birthday. 
Z got Toy Story 3 and some books and some hot wheels and Operation. 
The little boys got books and some wooden toys and the clowns. 
While the boys were sleeping the big boys played cards, and Uncle Dr Mat and Nate played Operation.  Funny stuff.
We tried to get a picture of all the boys in their pjs with their clowns, but 5 boys didn't cooperate, even with Elmo on.  Eh, there's only so much you can do. 
Another fun Christmas...glad that it is all finally over!
